Merry Christmas

Santa came to our house and left some really cool stuff. Cooper was super excited about his jeep. He wanted to drive it around the house that morning. Ryleigh was excited about all her toys too, but she wanted to be in that jeep with her bubby. It was a great morning. After we had Christmas we loaded up and headed to Midlothian for some great family christmas which I will post about next. We did not take a lot of pics because we recorded the morning so that we could enjoy the time with the kids.

So it has been a while since I have done a post. Chalk that up to I lost my camera battery charger and so I could not get any of my pictures. It is sad that it took me this long to go get a new one.

Lets go back a couple of months to Christmas Eve 2011. We had a great Christmas. We have started our own family traditions and it is so fun. The pictures below are basically what we did that night

Of course you have to set out cookies and milk for Santa. This year the kids and I made snicker doodles. They were yummy.

Since we feed Santa a snack we also make sure we dont forget the raindeer. Here are the kids putting out the raindeer food.

Most importantly we celebrate Jesus Birthday. We make him a cake and sing to him. Remembering the reason for the season

Last we always take a family picture in front of the tree on christmas eve.
